Newly appointed Matildas head coach Hesterine de Reus has named her first squad for the four-day training camp at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra which will commence later this week.
Having arrived in Australia in early January, de Reus watched every match of the Westfield W-League 2013 finals series and has been meeting with various stakeholders to plan the Matildas upcoming program.
De Reus says she is looking forward to her first opportunity to work with the national team on the training field since taking over as head coach.
"It is good to have the bulk of players available and in the country to come into our first camp together", said de Reus
"The purpose of this training camp is to meet with the players, set-up the highlights of how we are going to work together and also discuss our short-term and long-term aims.
"Most importantly we can start on the field and work on our playing style."
Of the 31 players named, nine have been included on reduced training loads for a variety of reasons, with Heather Garriock in particular joining the squad for the first time since appearing at the Olympic Games qualifiers in September 2011 and giving birth to her first child last year.
Dual-international Ellyse Perry will also join the Matildas squad after her outstanding performance last weekend as part of the World Cup-winning Southern Stars Australian women's cricket team.
